What I Wish We Knew About Unwinding - Julia

After much thought about what my first post should be, I have decided to make it about what I wish we knew about unwinding in general. I think that it is such a fascinating idea. I certainly don't agree with it, but it is such a different concept from anything in today's world that it is fascinating to me. I wish that Neal Shusterman had written more about how unwinding started. I have to imagine that it began because of overpopulation. There doesn't appear to be any birth control, since teenagers/adults are having babies left and right. When the procedure of taking apart every aspect of the human body and using it for other people was invented, this probably came along with the justification that it is okay, because other lives are being saved because of this process. I find it slightly hard to believe that there is not a large group of people against unwinding. If this process were to take effect tomorrow, I think that there would be a huge uproar against it, and not just from teenagers age 13-18. There has to be more of a story to how unwinding all started.
